The Son of God by
Karl Adam(
Book
)
17 editions published between 1934 and 1962 in English and French and held by 393 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"We must either give our consent to the historical existence of the whole Christ, the Christ of the miracles, or openly in the face of all the historical evidence venture the assertion that the Christ of the Gospels never existed." (Ch. 1) The author's point, that the so-called "historical" Christ and the Christ of faith are impossible to separate, is amply documented in these pages. But this is not simply a work of historical apologetics; it is also spiritual writing of the highest quality by a man of great faith

My system : a treatise on chess by
Aron Nimzowitsch(
Book
)
23 editions published between 1929 and 2003 in English and held by 272 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
For the first time, an English-speaking audience can ap-preciate the true nature of this famous, classic chess book as this brand-new translation recreates the authors origi-nal intention. Not to have read My System is regarded as a shocking gap in a chess players education, but English speakers had only poor translations that toned down or even deleted many passages because the translators feared Nimzowitschs famous biting wit would be controversial. Nimzowitschs ideas about how to play better chess have had a profound influence on modern chess thinking. It is commonly agreed that almost every chess master in the world has studied Nimzowitschs work. This is the first new English translation in decades. This is the first new English translation in decades and, unlike previous translations, does not censor or dilute the authors writing
